Abstract (en)

As a cost effective alternative to lithography, there is provided a method of forming an electronic device comprising the steps of depositing a first quantity of a first liquid medium comprising a dopant on a first portion of a planar surface and depositing a second quantity of the first liquid medium on a second portion of the surface, the first quantity spaced from the second quantity by a gap; heating the first quantity, the second quantity, and the surface, the heating configured to cause diffusion of at least some of the dopant from the first liquid medium into the surface; depositing a dielectric material on the surface in the gap; selectively removing the first quantity and the second quantity from the surface; depositing an electrical contact on each of the first portion and the second portion; and depositing a further electrical contact on the dielectric material.
